Boezem Mill No. 6 Haastrecht

Boezemmolen No. 6 is a windmill in Haastrecht in the Dutch province of South Holland. It is a round stone mill with a pronounced bell shape. With a span of more than thirty meters, this is the mill with the largest span in the Netherlands.
The mill is the sixth in a series of a total of seven boezemmolens that drained the boezem of the western part of the Lopiker and the eastern part of the Krimpenerwaard. The water was drained by these mills from the Vlist to the Hooge Boezem. The boezemmolens, originally all scoop mills, have been built over the years since 1486.
